No, this isn’t a new video game pitch , a “Walking Dead” episode or an upcoming George Romero film. Popular games like “Humans vs. Zombies” and the zombie-movie craze has made the term “zombie apocalypse”, a viral one. The Centers for Disease Control has shot down talks of zombies being real despite recent acts of cannibalism . The training session is being touted as a counter-terrorism summit, and will be put on by the security firm HALO Corp, according to Military Times .

The training session, which will take place in San Diego, Calif, will deal with reacting to how people deal in a pandemic when they become violent and fearful. Earlier this month, the Department of Homeland Security said “the zombies are coming” as a disguise to get citizens interested in preparing for a real disaster the Huffington Post reported.
